Every year, droughts, floods, and fires impact hundreds of millions
of people and cause massive economic losses. Climate change is
making these catastrophes more dangerous. Now. Not in the future:
NOW. This book describes how and why climate change is already
fomenting dire consequences, and will certainly make climate
disasters worse in the near future. Chris C. Funk combines the
latest science with compelling stories, providing a timely,
accessible, and beautifully-written synopsis of this critical
topic. The book describes our unique and fragile Earth system, and
the negative impacts humans are having on our support systems. It
then examines recent disasters, including heat waves, extreme
precipitation, hurricanes, fires, El Ninos and La Ninas, and their
human consequences. By clearly describing the dangerous impacts
that are already occurring, Funk provides a clarion call for social
change, yet also conveys the beauty and wonder of our planet, and
hope for our collective future.
